About me

I'm a 27 year old computer person from Växjö, Sweden. For the moment I'm very sold on developing rich application since the challenge it brings is greater then a simple website for Generic Company. A strong believer of open source and I try to contribute whenever I feel I know enough about the subject. Loves to snowboard but haven't done that in a few years. Recently caved in and started developing on a Macbook.

Skills

Javascript

Javascript is my primary language, almost everything I do for myself is done in JS but I occasionally try out interesting languages. Very proficient in React, React Native, NodeJS and some older frameworks (Meteor, Angular).

Operations

Coming from a sysadmin background I have great skills in everything doing with hardware and running stuff. Recently mostly focused at Docker. Very proficient in Linux administration.

People

Having taught students, keeping in contact with customers and consultants have made me really good with people and I have no problems taking customer responsibility.

Experience

Project Manager at Smelink AB, May 2017 - Present

After wanting to try out a more administrative role I found Smelink which wanted to take me on as a Project Manager. I'm the link between customer and production making sure nothing is lost in translation and what we deliver is up to par with the customers expectations.

Developer at Trifork AB, November 2015 - April 2017

Took my step into being a professional developer with this job. Before this job I'd always have a passion for development but I was not sure if I wanted to leave the comfort of being a sysadmin behind. Notable skills used during this employment is Javascript (NodeJS, React, React Native), Go, Elixir and Docker.

IT Coordinator at Abstracta/Lammhult, August 2010 - October 2015

This employment was very diverse, and it's hard to pin-point exactly what I did. Here's a selection of my daily/weekly tasks:

Application development, developing internal applications to aid the business

Lab Assistant at John Bauergymnasiet, September 2009 - June 2010

Assisting IT teacher in the Windows Server course. Led my own classes in Linux and web development. Graded three classes of students on my own. Wrote several tasks to do in class which where used long after I quit.
